Pray for Marriages (Rekindle our Faith)


faith noun \ˈfāth\
Belief and trust in and loyalty to God*

Greetings Prayer Warriors!

All throughout Scripture are examples of Christ healing the afflicted.  The sinful woman at the Pharisees house, the blind beggar, the ten lepers, the woman with hemorrhages, just to name a few.**  After each healing, Jesus exclaimed,

“You faith has saved you; go in peace.” Luke 7:50

One has to wonder whether the healing they needed and received was well beyond the physical. 

If you did a personal inventory of your faith, your trust, & your hope in the Lord, where would you stand?

For those struggling in their marriage, if the Lord decided to heal your marriage tomorrow, or even give you the promise of a future healing, would you have the faith to stay?   Would the Lord be able to say to you, “your faith has saved you.”?

Let us pray for an increase in faith: for yourself, a special couple, and an unknown couple.

May the fire of the Holy Spirit descend like a torrential rain, and flood the hearts of the faithful you have bonded together in Holy Matrimony.  Reignite the flame of faith, hope,  and love.  Destroy the chains of doubt and discouragement.  Jesus we trust in you!

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet

Increase someone’s faith.  Pray for them and pass it on!
